Saints QB Derek Carr forced to retire due to shoulder injury [View all]
Well, that's too bad.
New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is retiring, the team announced on Saturday.
The team said that Carr had a labral tear and degenerative rotator cuff damage to his right throwing shoulder which was discovered in late March after Carr ramped up throwing to prepare for the season. The team said that Carr had not thrown significantly since he fractured his non-throwing hand during a game against the New York Giants in December.
According to the team, surgery was an option, but that would have put the 2025 season in jeopardy, and Carr decided to retire instead.
